why aren't they part of obamacare? one thing the american people are cynical about is washington elites imposing laws on others that they do not impose on themselves. i just want to be treated equally under the law. we now understand opm, i am not sure, people will have to look into it, are now putting members of congress and their and their staff into the small business exchange. last time i looked, government and congress was not a small business. i do not know they have the legal authority to do this. it is a simple issue, what the level of their compensation ought to be. i think a clear reading of the law, it is hard to figure out how you could be having an employer contribution in the individual pull. i just do not think opm has the legal authority to do that. the law has so many different special-interest provisions and sweetheart deals. so let's make it clear in the law. i do not want to lose my employer subsidy, but i do want to follow the law. >> 15 minutes left. >> congressman, you do not have to look far bey

>>steve: but obamacare is going to kick off today. you now can log on and sign up for exchanges but what the heck does all that mean? we're covering both these stories in depth this morning, but first let's start with the shutdown. it happened just about right at midnight. officially the federal government is partially shut down. although, you know, for most people it might be an inconvenience you're not going to see a lot of stuff that is happening. a lot of it has to do with the national parks and stuff like that. but what is clear is both side are in agreement, it's the other side's fault. they got us here. >>brian: one thing is clear. democrats didn't budge and the republicans did. they came out. at first they said let's defund the entire thing. i'm talking about obamacare. to move forward. they added other things, even the x.l. pipeline. but the time it got to the zero hour it got to defund obamacare to let's delay the entire thing for a year, clearly not remembered, and that was denied. so in the end we went past midnight and no

>> there are all sorts of safeguards built into obamacare. by and large those aren't directed at this issue of competition in the marketplace, but we do have a policy infrastructure in place for dealing with that, and that's the anti-trust laws and anti-trust authorities, and those folks at the department of justice and federal trade commission are taking a long-hard look in terms of what is going on in terms of physicians and hospitaling coming together. >> what are your biggest hopes for the overall health care industry with obamacare and what are your biggest fears as it starts to get implemented? >> well, i prefer to focus on my hope. my hope is that health care reform will help us all to enjoy a system that delivers greater value; that delivers better quality of care at lower costs. we spend about one out of every five of our hard-earned dollars on health care in this country, and that number has just gone up and up and up, and it's an enormous burden on our own finances, but also the federal budget and the problems that we're seeing tod

let's repeal obamacare. we need to keep the government opened? let's repeal obamacare. the answer to everything, the cure for absolutely nothing. and now their legislative malpractice, i don't know of anything else you can call it, has led us to the brink of a major crisis. read just this morning from frank keating, former republican governor of oklahoma what in the world is going on here. what in the world do we think we are doing? as we begin to see the consequences of their actions, they are doubling down, putting forth a list of demands that even the greediest child on christmas morning would be put to shame. in exchange for averting a government shutdown and global economic crisis, the house majority considers making the demand. a one-year delay of the individual mandate which would cut the health care law. the implementation of congressman ryan's tax reform plan, which does away with medicare, by the way. despite the fact that voters, my deleeg said, rejected his draconian vision as he ran for vice president last year. the repeal of dodd-frank -- additional minute
